Replying to: rrich49132 (Apr 13, 2008 4:43 am) And the accord costs so much.... I have been on the fence on selling my 1999 Jeep Grand Cherokee as it has 111K miles and I am coming off a $2000 repair. I have looked at the civic's and done tons of research and can get a 2008 LX 5 speed for about $16,500 out the door. After reading the posts it seems like a good deal. After looking at the civic I really like the EX-L with navigation and have seen what that goes for and from the quotes it looks like it would around $20,500 out the door which I just can't seem to grasp to pay 20K for a civic? I know these are great cars and the gas mileage is a plus but come on that is just too much. I think I might wait for the 2009 models to come out and hope a dealer has a few of the ex-l's with nav that I can snatch up for a steal. Just my $0.02~ My husband has the Accord. It's a great vehicle, but just a little to heavy for my comfort. To my understanding, the Civic and the Acura TSX are virtually the same vehicle, besides the engine and some other tweeks. I was considering the CR-V, prior to the Civic. I went to test drive the Civic; it had 15 miles on it and I brought it back with 70 miles. Even though I could have gotten the Accord (or many other decent vehicles) for a similar price, the Civic fits me perfectly. It's not only about the dollars and cents (by the way, I'm an Accountant), but also about the total value--reconciling between wants/needs and cost. Thanks, Trin

Purchased on 04/12/2008 in Middlesex county New Jersey. Price $16,350 (Including Destination) Documentation $269 Tax (7%) $1144.50 Registration fees $262 NJ Tire Fee $7.5 --------------------------------------------- Total OTD $18,033 -------------------------------------------- I know this is not the lowest price when compared to the previous posts. I think the documentation fee $269 is little bit higher, but I am happy that I got 0.90% APR for 3 Years. |

Replying to: backy (Apr 13, 2008 9:33 am)  Either way, the point I was making in my previous post is that it doesn't matter how much you can get another car for if it's not what you want. These message boards have helped me immensely as I researched buying a new car. I just wanted to share the details of my purchase in an effort to assist anyone seeking information. My hope is that someone can use the information to their advantage. Thanks, Trin

Replying to: trinity3 (Apr 13, 2008 1:00 pm) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acura_TSX I think the (RIP) RSX was based on the Civic platform, like the Integra before it. |

Both great cars but a bit more pricey than the Civics. Have to agree with the size factor...it's the perfect size with excellent mileage...who could ask fro more. Probably could've gotten a Sonata for close to the same price, but it was just a bit to big. The Sandman

| just signed for a new 2008 civic sedan ex auto navi in chicagoland for $21,706 OTD. $19,600 for the car, $1813 tax (9.25%), $143 new plates, title, registration, $150 doc fee. | |

hello all! I just got back from the dealer. I was over at middletown honda, NY and was looking at a 2008 civic ex with out the navi. I was quoted 18,600 and told invoice of 18559. Basically the OTD price is 20,230 or so. taxes are 1511.00 Any thoughts on this ? Good deal? Room for Bargaining? part of me feels there is room for bargaining still.
